ROBOCOP
This remake of the classic 1987 sci-fi ROBOCOP, is based in the year 2028 when multinational conglomerate OmniCorp is at the centre of robot technology. Overseas, their drones have been used by the military for years and it’s meant billions for OmniCorp’s bottom line. Now OmniCorp wants to bring their controversial technology to the home front, and they see a golden opportunity to do it. When Alex Murphy, a loving husband, father and good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit, is critically injured in the line of duty, OmniCorp sees their chance for a part-man part-robot police officer. OmniCorp envisions a RoboCop in every city and even more billions for their shareholders, but they never counted on one thing – there is still a man inside the machine pursuing justice.
